Holidays for all

This weekend Wuppertal in North Rhine-Westphalia is offering a city sightseeing tour especially for wheelchair users. If the demand is high, further dates will follow.

As you would expect, Germany's cities already offer tours in sign language and for visitors with visual impairments. Travel geared towards people with restricted mobility is well established and is getting easier all the time. Three quarters of German rail stations now have disabled facilities and companies such as Lufthansa, airberlin and Deutsche Bahn offer a special service for handicapped travellers. Holidays for all are a top priority in Destination Germany.
